PACBAZ Studio: continuity • PACBAZ Studio arises out of the needs of a significant number of very satisfied VisualAge Pacbase (VAP) users, who are at the crossroad after the annoucement of IBM to terminate the support of Pacbase in 2015 • PACBAZ Studio provides development and code generation capabilities which are exactly the same as VAP, built on modern Eclipse and relational database infrastructure • The generated COBOL code is strictly the same as the one issued from VAP for all supported platforms (cf z/OS, Bull GCOS, UNIX, ...) • It also allows to generate modernized maintainable COBOL and even Java (within JEE architecture) and C# (within Microsoft .Net architecture) • PACBAZ Studio is totally developped with purely standard and Open source components and has no dependency on any other commercial tool
PACBAZ Studio: Repository • Integrated with Eclipse • Accessed by the universal interface JPA: Java Persistance API • Data is stored and shared in any open source or commercial relational database : • Oracle • MySQL • Derby • DB2 UDB • … • Or in XML files that can be temporarily stored inside the developer’s workstation • Replacement of highly used VAP « sessions » via a sophisticated implementation, using CVS or SubVersion
PACBAZ Studio: Repository (continued) • Import of an exported VAP repository produced by EXLI (full or by selected libraries with related components) • Handling of all types of VAP entities • Management of useds • Users and Groups rights • Access to libraries • Small footprint, allowing easy and fast partial global backups in today’s commodity workstations and servers • Example dictionnary of: • 2000 programs,19000 elements, 27000 segments et 5000 dialogs=> 1,5 Gigabytes • Organisation per libraries with cross references
PACBAZ Studio: Supported entities • Program and Macro • Definition • Macro call • Logical View call • Start lines • Specific handling • List of working storage • Screen • Definition • Segement call • Macro call • Appel de segment • Appel de macro • Start lines • Specific handling • Dialog complements • Library • Keyword • Data Element • Definition • Description • Logical View • Definition • Description • Segment • Definition • Details • Report • Definition • Preview • Structural details • List of categories
PACBAZ Studio: Supported entities (continued) • Dialogue • Text • Document • Format Guide • Database block • Method • Meta Entity • User Relation • User Entity • User Entity Extension
PACBAZ Studio: extract of UML representation of the repository
PACBAZ Studio: Plug-in • Full integration in Eclipse (3.5 or superior) • Works under Windows but alsounderany Eclipse supportedplatform (ie Linux) • Creation and Import of Repository • Manipulation of entitywith a nice look and feel • Generation (s) of target (s) code • Sophisticatedgenerated code comparator • Local COBOL compiler (for immediate validation) • Full local mainframe simulation (option)
PACBAZ Studio: Local compilation • Pacbaz Studio generates COBOL code to be compiled in the target environment • We provide a first compile and check capability • Associated COBOL compiler can be: • Micro Focus COBOL • Veryant vCOBOL (that generated Java and is syntaxically closed to z/OS COBOL)) • Fujitsu NetCOBOL • Open COBOL (Open source) • COBOL-IT (Open source avec professional support) • Additionnaly, we propose, in the case of IBM Mainframe platforms , a development and local testing infrastructure with the XFRAME Rehosting platform
PACBAZ Studio: Management fonctions • Via Eclipse « administrator » perspective • Management of users and roles • Users, groups • Role and privileges per library • Locking and unlocking of entities • Management of sessions • Current • Historical • Shared and or/local • Save and restore • Base • CVS/Subversion referential
PACBAZ Studio: Delivery model ) • TELEBIG group, through its subsidiary France COBOL, is building a strong , transparent and long term partnership with its PACBAZ Studio customers • Price components budget (confidential) • Entry price allowing delivery of all PACBAZ Studio current and future versions in source code for the limited usage of the organization who subscribes to its own usage • (For pricing, please consult us) • Annual payment (including usage, corrective and evolutionary maintenance, hotline in English) • Per named developer seat • Repository • Batch • On-line • For pricing, please consult us)
